An alternate version of 3404, patchset one, includes an implementation which cheats, namely, within a few months of GiveUpAllCallBacks being fixed, the GetStatistics64 RPC was introduced.

Indeed it does, but it's also a workable pragmatic solution to a real problem. I could see putting a sunset date on the technique. You might also log a warning based on it so vulnerable admins could get a clue. This seems like a great way to move forward to me in spite of the unrelated RPC tying inelegance.
